Re: linux + win95: linux boot partition/



Hi,

SCSI is not so expensive anymore, just check out www.pricewatch.com and
www.shopper.com. Unless  you want the latest bleeding edge Adaptec 2940U2W
controller, you don't have to dish out a lot of dough for scsi. And there are a lot
of $160 4.5 GB Quantum Viking 7200RPM 8ms disks floating around on those pages.
They use an 80 pin SCA interface, but you can get an adapter to 68-pin for another
$20. That's a whole lot of high performance storage for the price, and
storagereview.com rated the viking very well to.
